Thanks guys, glad I asked before I did something stupid

Hey guys,

I was about to do my first augment on an ancient weapon when I ended up confusing myself.

Its a Jesseth Scythe, do I use green gems for more crit or do I use yellow for my int?

Being a weapon I'm not sure, if I use green will it give me dex instead of crit which of course I dont want.

Or if I use yellow will it give me int or damage per hit for ranged and melee attacks?

I initially just wanted an int boost but like I said I ended up confusing myself.

Thanks for any help.

Mate awesome feedback thank you so much for taking the time and trouble of helping me out with this I very much appreciate it.

I'll make some changes and see how it goes

I did notice though watching your video it didnt show or mention what spells you use as well as how are you teleporting around so much without using Aether Walker?

Is that what 60% CDR gives you instead?

Thanks mate, the ring and talent will synergise into this without me having to do anything different for proc rate/use?

Getting back to my original question where is my lightning damage coming from for the ring and talent?

Or do I have to switch out Zodiac for CoE and Arcane Torrent for Magic Missile to make this pairing work?

If I keep my current setup, Arcane Torrent and Zodiac, then the ring and talent are a waste of space because theres no lightning damage from CoE to use with it?

I'm trying really hard to understand this.

I like having Archon handy on a low cooldown so for me Zodiac is preferred but if I go that way do I change the Manald Ring and Paralysis to something else?

I now have the full set bonus of Tal Rasha's and the dps difference to not having it is huge.

Plan B is this build, it makes sense, just not sure if its better: https://www.icy-veins.com/d3/lightning-archon-wizard-skills-and-runes

At this stage I'm up to GR60 and doing it easy.

I've never hit 70 on any of my characters but thats my goal and I'd like my Wizard to do it because I really enjoy the class.

That was one fatal flaw I did forget to mention, I'am using Zodiac and not CoE.

My cooldown time is around 46% without Gogok's kicking in but I usually only have a few seconds wait between using Archon again.

I use the rotation now that you mentioned so I have that down pat, its just the lightning damage I was concerned about.

Hey guys,

I'm following the Rhykker Archon Lightning build but I'am stuck trying to work out the synergy between the Manald Heal ring and Paralysis.

Firstly I have 3 exceptions to the Rhykker build, I'am one piece short on the Tal Rasha's set even using the Ring of Royal Granduer so I dont have the full set bonus yet only the 4 piece bonus.

Secondly I'm using Arcane Torrent instead of Magic Missle I just feel it does more damage.

I use the Chantodo's main and offhand weps as well until I get Aether Walker and Tal Rasha's Unwavering Glare wihich will give me the 6 piece bonus.

So I dont see how the ring works with the talent.

The ring turns stuns into lightning damage but you need lightning spells to make Paralysis stun.

So where is the third party here as looking at my tooltips for everything most is arcane damage and nothing deals lightning damage.

Heres the build: https://www.d3planner.com/242897219

So how does the ring work/proc using the talent of Paralysis?

I've looked at this a thousand times the penny just isnt dropping.

Where is my lightning damage coming from?

This also goes for Starfire I cant see how it works either so I'm using The Furnace in the Cube instead.

Thanks for any help

Hi guys,

Just a quick question about the Obsidian Ring of the Zodiac compared to Convention of Elements.

I'am using a Impale solo build from Wudijo on Youtube that I saw, I went with CoE until someone said in post replies that Zodiac was a better choice.

I have both rings to choose from next to my Compass Rose, I just dont get/fully understand how Zodiac works and what advantage I get from it overall and compared to Zodiac.

I'm mainly running torment 13 rifts and at this stage torment level 55 greater rifts.

Thanks for any help.

So choosing cold resistance to be replaced like I did wont get me a socket then?

Wow all that time, money and effort wasted.

Lack of knowledge can be dangerous at times.

Ok so you cant always pick the weakest attribute or the one you want to change then?

I havent noticed a socket as an option on anything I've looked at yet although the other day I was rerolling a stat on my followers ring and it came up.

Thats the only time I've seen a socket appear.

I play on Xbox One and whenever I hit X to see a list of alternatives Enchants the option of sockets never show up so I was thinking/hoping it was just a random thing no matter what you were changing it for.

I do have one more sort of related question, to socket a necklace its just a basic enchant right?

I've tried to reroll one ability I think over 300 times now to try and get a socket so either it doesnt work on a necklace or I just have to keep going and going.

Pumped so much time and gold and resources into it and still nothing.

I'm assuming a socket isnt common drop?

I'm using Krysbins Sentence in the cube so dont really want to change that one.

The idea of the rings is for a damage reduction, my follower has the no die amulet already, so a pair of Unity rings would be a good thing.

Thanks Black, I did mention in my OP that I had tried using the Cube for upgrading rings but the mats soon vanish before you know it.

As for rarity I have about half a dozen Arcstone rings so not sure why I havent seen a Unity yet.

Thanks anyway for the feedback.

So are you saying its only a season thing?

Hey guys,

Just wanted to know to those of you that have this ring what Rift levels were you doing or what act did it drop from?

I know its supposed to be a random drop but its been so hard to get there must be a common ground somewhere we're their coming from.

I've tried gambling using shards, I've tried ugrading rings through the Cube, I get every other ring in the game except this one.

And of course to make it work I need 2, damn hard when I cant even get one.

I've just come back to the game so like most people giving the Necro a go.

I've watched a few Rykker YouTube videos and have all the gear now for the bone armour build except this ring.

I'm using the Compass Rose and Arcstone Ring with my follower at the moment to fill in time until I get this.

Any suggestions would be great.

Well the gaming gods have been kind and today I've picked up 3 Ramaladni gift's so far so its been a goo day.

I hit Torment 13 today so maybe being a little higher that may have helped although I got them all running at 11 in rifts, normal and greater.

So thanks everyone for the feedback really appreciated it
